Austins E28... What size tires is this?

[GermanlookT3]

Ive been looking for a good size tire for my rims I have sitting in the Garage.
Same size rims and et's as Austins car.

Im tossing up the stretched tires
17x8 Et 10 30mm spacer Front
17x9 Et 26 25 mm rear Spacer

Tires : 205/40 Front and 215/40 Rear

This picture is of his car before he was running stretched tires... What size is that? They look like they are filling the fenders up pretty well.

I think you mean "These pictures were before his car was PERFECT!"

Search on mye28.com... I'm sure somewhere he posted his original tire sizes. Or just PM him. He lurks here.

lol yeah... Believe me the stretched look is way better. I was just wondering what he was at here.

I Pm'd him so Hopefully he will answer back. couple of questions for you though. Im planning on going as low as austin and i'd like to raise the motor a little. Any pointers on doing it>? Mye28 isnt really helpfull on this subject. Alot of purist's there.

I just used some bigass washers under the motor mounts. I think I have about 3/4" on each side. Basically I left just enough room to get the top nut all the way on with no spare threading.

Right on , Sounds like a plan.
